10. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is a push messaging server.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is an instant messaging server.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is an intranet web browsing server.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is an intranet file access server.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is an intranet application access server.
15. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is a virtual private network (VPN) access server.
16. The method of claim 8 , wherein said access server is a VPN key distribution server.
17. A method for accessing an enterprise from a wireless network device by using a computer, comprising: retrieving a security file location from a server external to the enterprise; retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location; coupling the wireless network device to the computer; and programming said security file into the wireless network device.
18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising: retrieving a security file access protocol from said server external to the enterprise.
19. The method of claim 18 , wherein said retrieving a security file further includes retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location and said security file access protocol.
20. The method of claim 17 , further comprising: forwarding any remaining security parameters to the wireless network device.
21. The method of claim 17 , further comprising: sending an email address from a user having the wireless network device to a server internal to the enterprise.
22. The method of claim 17 , further comprising: sending communication from the wireless network device to an access server internal to the enterprise, the communication sent using a configuration stored in said security file.
23. A computer system for configuring access from a wireless network device to an enterprise, comprising: means for retrieving a security file location from a server external to the enterprise; means for retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location; means for programming said security file into the wireless network device; and means for forwarding any remaining security parameters to the wireless network device.
24. The computer system of claim 23 , further comprising: means for retrieving a security file access protocol from said server external to the enterprise.
25. The computer system of claim 24 , wherein said means for retrieving a security file further includes means for retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location and said security file access protocol.
26. The computer system of claim 23 , further comprising: means for receiving an email address from a user having the wireless network device; and means for wherein said security file is unique to a domain covering said email address.
27. The computer system of claim 23 , wherein said server internal to the enterprise is a web server.
28. The computer system of claim 23 , wherein said server internal to the enterprise is a file server.
29. The computer system of claim 23 , wherein said server internal to the enterprise is a database server.
30. The computer system of claim 23 , further comprising: means for receiving communication from said wireless network device to an access server internal to the enterprise, the communication sent using a configuration stored in said security file.
31. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is an email server.
32. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is a push messaging server.
33. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is an instant messaging server.
34. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is an intranet web browsing server.
35. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is an intranet file access server.
36. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is an intranet application access server.
37. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is a virtual private network (VPN) access server.
38. The computer system of claim 30 , wherein said access server is a VPN key distribution server.
39. A computer system for accessing an enterprise from a wireless network device by, comprising: means for retrieving a security file location from a server external to the enterprise; means for retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location; means for coupling the wireless network device to a computer; and means for programming said security file into the wireless network device.
40. The computer system of claim 39 , further comprising: means for retrieving a security file access protocol from said server external to the enterprise.
41. The computer system of claim 40 , wherein said means for retrieving a security file further includes means for retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location and said security file access protocol.
42. The computer system of claim 39 , further comprising: means for forwarding any remaining security parameters to the wireless network device.
43. The computer system of claim 39 , further comprising: means for sending an email address from a user having the wireless network device to a server internal to the enterprise.
44. The computer system of claim 39 , further comprising: means for sending communication from the wireless network device to an access server internal to the enterprise, the communication sent using a configuration stored in said security file.
45. A program storage device readable by a machine, comprising a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for configuring access from a wireless network device to an enterprise, the method comprising: retrieving a security file location from a server external to the enterprise; retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location; programming said security file into the wireless network device; and forwarding any remaining security parameters to the wireless network device.
46. A program storage device readable by a machine, comprising a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method for accessing an enterprise from a wireless network device by using a computer, the method comprising: retrieving a security file location from a server external to the enterprise; retrieving a security file from a server internal to the enterprise using said security file location; coupling the wireless network device to the computer; and programming said security file into the wireless network device.
